News Of The Week
Welcome to the Books And Articles newsletter. Thanks for all of the quality posts.
This has been a really good week for the territory. @jimmysong posted his review of The Mandibles, which is one of the most popular works of fiction among bitcoiners in recent years. If you don’t know anything about Jimmy Song, he is an OG bitcoin developer, educator, entrepreneur and author. He has written books such as “Programming Bitcoin”, “Fiat Ruins Everything”, and many others. Here’s a link to his Amazon author’s page.
I am also very happy to showcase our new logo this week, designed by @plebpoet. Not only does she usually dominate the top posts in this territory with her writing, but now she’s adding her artistic skills. A real Renaissance Person.
A few days ago I created My Bitcoin Journey Directory. I did it primarily to inspire more stories from stackers about how they discovered bitcoin. I hope we get a few posts on this topic in the coming weeks.
One more thing. There were a lot of good posts that flew under the radar. I included a few more suggestions, so I won’t be selecting a Golden Oldie in this newsletter. There is more than enough here already to keep us busy.
As always, please reply with suggestions and opinions on how to make this territory better.
I hope everyone has a good week.

Top Five Posts Of The Week
Here are this week’s top posts:
Siggy’s Suggestions
I have no idea how this slipped past everyone. It’s a typical high quality Mises Institute review of Knut Svanholm’s new book about bitcoin. It sounds good. I will add it to my growing pile of unread bitcoin books. So many good ones have been published lately.
I admit it. This is a sentimental pick. When my daughter was young these books and movies played a big role in our lives. They were particularly enjoyable for me, since I still have the sense of humor of a fourteen year old boy.
This post by @Taft features a poem by Hermann Hesse, and Taft’s personal childhood memories . Most of us can find some truth here.
I enjoy just about everything @Malachi17 posts. I recommend you check out his site.
